How to start?

I have spent years reading and researching and then reading and researching some more. I see this search as a journey that will truly last me my lifetime. But how to actually start this blog has been somewhat of a puzzle to me. With passion I search for information about what is nutritious and what is truth about the food we have available to us. It is my belief that what we put into our bodies affects every aspect of our lives.

In more recent months I have come across some extraordinary websites and blogs. Much information has been gained and much left to ponder. Certainly at some point I will be sharing these with you. But, I do care to be somewhat original and post some of my own ideas and thoughts as well.

Growing up my family ate what I would consider a typical American diet. Being that my family was of low socioeconomic status we had limited funding to spend on food. Thus, many prepackaged foods were purchased and consumed. This is not that way I currently eat but I am left to ponder what those years of poor nutrition have done to me healthwise long term. Nevertheless, I believe that the choices I make now can make a difference.

Writing is something I enjoy but I am far from perfect when it comes to grammar. If incorrect grammar is cumbersome for you may I kindly suggest looking elsewhere :) This blog is for me to enjoy and if I treat it like a term paper I know hardly anything will be posted! I hope you enjoy this journey with me. Would certainly like to hear your thoughts and findings along the way as well.

As I search to find a good picture to go with this post I realize what a task that is itself. In no way shape or form do I want to steal someones work from off the web (come to think of it, my other blog has some images I should probably check on just to make sure ; ). Until I figure out how to load free images you can imagine a traffic signal at the top of this post that has a green light, or a pair of legs in running shoes taking that first stride. Ha, leave it up to your imagination and choose that image that works best for you. Enjoy your weekend and seek that which brings balance and happiness!
